M5 CS seats

greentrbo95gst · 05-20-2023, 09:14 PM

So which one of you lucky bastards bought the M5 CS seats that were for sale in San Diego?
I was negotiating with the guy and someone just came in and took the seats.
I wonder what needs to be changed in a standard M5 to install them.

Was this from the guy on FB that won’t share prices on his post and asks for DMs only — which drives everyone nuts and seems a bit sketchy but is probably a smart business move lol.

I think there is a retrofit kit available for $26k.

The seats were sold for $8k by the seller in SD.

The kit for $26k is from a company.

Maverik259 · 05-26-2023, 10:06 PM

What does the kit provide extra?

Wow, $26k and doesn't include the rears.

Most of what I have read says they aren’t very comfortable.

Are you tall or short? Light or heavy? Shorter, lighter guys seem to find comfort more easily in general.

I'm a nearly six foot tall fat ass. They are comfortable for long trips in BOTH my M5 CS, and my girlfriends M3 CS. For the both of us. And she's 5'2".

Not sure who finds them uncomfortable. Maybe people used to $120,000 barges with quilted pillows for seats. I guess, under those circumstances, could be an issue.
